A car and a semi were involved in a crash at Route 14 and Teckler Blvd. according to Deputy Chief Derek Hyrkas.

The driver of the semi was heading eastbound on Route 14, and at the intersection, the driver of the white Hyundai Elantra was traveling northbound on Teckler Blvd. When the Elantra entered the intersection, the collision occurred between the car and the semi.

At this time, it was not clear who had the right of way. No citations were issued and police have stated that this accident is still under investigation.
